State Persistence

19 Apr 20172 minutes to read

TreeView state can be persisted by using enablePersistence. In which entire modal has been persisted excluding data source in order to maintain performance.

The model values of below are maintained through Id basis of tree node.

• selected
• checked
• expanded/collapsed state

NOTE

“Ul-li” template option, state has been persisted by index.

TreeView stores its model in local storage / cookies of browser before page refreshes and reinitialized with their stored model after refresh.

JS

var localData = [

        { id: 1, text: "Item 1" },

        { id: 2, text: "Item 2" },

        { id: 3, text: "Item 3" },

        { id: 4, text: "Item 4" },

        { id: 5, parent: 1, text: "Item 1.1" },

        { id: 6, parent: 1, text: "Item 1.2" },

        { id: 7, parent: 1, text: "Item 1.3" },

        { id: 8, parent: 3, text: "Item 3.1" },

        { id: 9, parent: 3, text: "Item 3.2" },

        { id: 10, parent: 5, text: "Item 1.1.1" }

        ];

        $(function () {

            // initialize and bind the TreeView with local data

            $("#treeView").ejTreeView({

                enablePersistence: true,

                fields: { dataSource: localData, id: "id", parentId: "parent", text: "text" }

            });

        });
